Chief S. O. Adewale who died in a car crash
involving a petrol tanker which lost control and
rammed into a car carrying him, his wife and
another occupant.

the other occupant of the car, who
witnesses say was the deceased’s son,
suffered varying degrees of injuries, were

he resided, from Owo, Ondo State was said to
have parked his car beside the main road at
Owena market in Osun State to buy some few
things from the market.

has brake failure and swerved off the road and
ran over the officials car.

was the only one who died in the accident. His
wife and son suffered injuries and had been
taken to hospital for treatment. ”
The sector also used the opportunity to advise
motorists to always abide by traffic rules and
regulations, saying the commission would not
relent in his efforts to ensure a strict adherence
to the rules.
